"This project began with my desire to make my work accessible to my friends and followers. I tend to work mostly on big commissions and large projects. It’s great to produce small scale, fun work about where I’ve been and my influences, and rediscover older work again.

I want to make collecting art accessible and open to everyone. As a northern girl nothing delights me more than a bargain, so every so often I release a collection of works, for a limited period, at a very sweet price point.

The National Gallery in Washington DC blew my socks off. Like the NG in London, admission to see the permanent collection is free.

I like to wander around galleries with my charcoal and sketchbook and come back to the paintings that hook me in and stand there and make a drawing of them.

Nothing beats drawing from original paintings to really see how they’ve been constructed. By the end it feels like you’ve somehow consumed the painting and it’s become part of you. When I come across the artwork again the stab of recognition is like seeing the face of an old, much loved friend.
